Cape Cod
Cocktail History
A Cape Cod cocktail is a refreshing take on the classic Cape Codder drink. Originating in the early 1980s, the cocktail has become popular across America with its unique blend of vodka and cranberry juice. What makes this cocktail even more special is its unexpected ingredients; besides vodka and cranberry juice, Cape Cod cocktails include lime juice and orange slices as accents. While some fruity cocktails are overly sweet, these maintain their zesty balance thanks to these key ingredients. Whether you’re looking for a sophisticated drink to share with friends or something to enjoy after a long day, Cape Cods are perfect for any situation. So raise your glass and cheers – you can’t go wrong!
